Sabian HH Vintage Ride 21'' - sanjuro's review
This Hand Hammered Vintage Ride is another great cymbal from the Sabian lines. In general, I often only use the HHX line because I find them slightly more versatile for my kind of music. However, t…
Sabian Paragon Chinese 19" - sanjuro's review
The 19'' Sabian Paragon China cymbal is without a doubt my favorite china cymbal ever. It is reasonably affordable and comes from an impressive Niel Peart line of Paragons. It looks different than …
Sabian HHX Groove Hats 14" - sanjuro's review
I am a huge advocate of the HHX line, and one of my favorite examples of why this line kills are the Groove Hats. Funk and groovy rock/jazz are my favorite styles to play, and that is what these cym…
Sabian Xs20 Performance Set - sanjuro's review
The Xs20 is a really good entry level/intermediate cymbal pack. Make no mistake, they are for beginners, but are waaaay better than most of the entry level cymbals for only a slight price increase. …
Sabian AA Raw Ride 20" - sanjuro's review
I was first introduced to the Sabian AA raw ride when I was looking through lots of Zildjian k and Sabian hh jazz rides. I always thought that the best jazz sounds come from these higher end lines. …
Sabian AA Metal X Hats 14" - moosers's review

Sabian HHX Stage Ride 20" - sanjuro's review
This is the most versatile ride I have ever used. Obviously, personal preference plays a big part of any cymbal purchase. However, time and time again, I am impressed by the sounds this cymbal prod…
Sabian AA Heavy Ride 20'' - moosers's review

Sabian AAX Dark Crash 16" - moosers's review
I've been using the Sabian AAX Dark Crash cymbal for about two years and it is one of my favorite crash cymbals to use for recording rock and pop music. It has a brilliance to it that is not only uni…
Sabian AA Metal X China 18" - moosers's review
I've been using the Sabian AA Bright Crash cymbal for about two years for recording and while it is a good sounding crash cymbal, I have used better ones that I would use over this one any day. The c…
Sabian Xs20 Performance Set - FateFelledVictim's review
The Sabian XS20 cymbals are what I played on when I auditioned for my band, and these cymbals have a horrible tone. I played with the band and cymbals for about 2 weeks, and eventually brought my Zil…
Sabian AA Rock Hats 14'' - FateFelledVictim's review
These were my very first Sabian cymbals to ever have gone in my set up, and they will probably be the last. I have used many Zildjian and Paiste’s before trying this model, and they weren’t the worst…
Sabian Paragon Ride 22" - goodbyebluesky's review
I've been on a search for the perfect ride, and I think I found it. Problem is- I can't afford it, more on that later. Sabian's Paragon cymbals are made in Canada, just the man behind these cymbals; …
Sabian AAX Stage Crash 16" - goodbyebluesky's review
I owned my 16" AAX Stage Crash for a couple years before I sold it off to another drummer. The sound quality of the cymbal changed dramatically to my ears over the time owned it. I remember buyi…
Sabian HHX Splash 10" - Drummerguy's review
This is a great cymbal with a very balanced sound. I've been playing one of these for about 6 years now- I actually won it as a door prize at a convention and couldn't have been more pleased. This …
